Annual regulatory returns required for FAPs

All licensed Financial Advice Providers (FAPs) are required to complete and submit an annual regulatory return.

The series of questions helps obtain an up-to-date understanding of the nature, size, and complexity of financial advice provider services.

Submission details for FAPs

Licensees must complete the annual regulatory return for the 12-month period ending June 30 and submit it to the Financial Markets Authority (FMA) by Sept. 30.

All licensed FAPs have been notified via email to ensure submission by the deadline.

FMA information sheet for assistance

To assist with the process, FAPs can download the FAP regulatory return information sheet.

The document compiles existing information on regulatory returns for ease and convenience. It contains no new information or expectations but is expected to be useful for completing the regulatory return using the online form.

FMA online submission portal

Regulatory returns should be submitted through the FMA Online Services portal.

The centralised system streamlines the submission process, ensuring all necessary information is accurately recorded and submitted on time.
